Cassette tape recording has split?

Is there anyway I can mend a split tape.
I have recorded on it. My Uncle who was giving his after dinner speech. He passed away a few years ago. And would dearly love to be able to hear him again.
Has anybody any ideas.
Kind regards

nail varnish was a big hit back in the days. get some nail varnish apply it to one side of the broken tape, then overlap the other side of the break over approximately 1 inch overlap. let it set 24 hours and should work fine. fixed plenty tapes in the 80's for my parents this way

Hi hifi

Doesn't it stop playing as it gets to the sellotape?
